Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a semi-hazy burnt dark orange almost red color with a sheet of white foamy head that went down with the sips. Sliding messy lace.
The aroma had some roasted malts, smooth caramel to toffee glaze and some light earthy to grassy hops.
The flavor was dried malty sweetness. Light malty aftertaste and finish.
The palate was medium bodied with a nice sessionability about it. Low carbonation. ABV felt good.
Overall, pretty nice clean Irish red ale that I’d have again.

Growler share, thanks Chris.
My portion was poured into a becher pint glass.
The appearance was a hazy yellow to orange pale color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that died off at a nice pace. Some messy lace.
The aroma had a nice blend of sweet to bitter citrus covering some bready malt character.
The flavor copied the aroma and had a nice aftertaste of the same aromas. Abrupt bready finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. ABV felt appropriate. Hops and malts meet well enough to contrast yet blend just enough for a good all around feel.
Overall, this pale ale is worth your time. Try it if you see it or at this brewery.
